Despite arriving at 9 PM, my party and I waited an outrageous two and a half hours for our food, which was only served at 11:33 PM. The staff were unwelcoming, rude, and unresponsive, leaving us to repeatedly chase down basic essentials like condiments.

When we got there the atmosphere was electric . They gave us a seat at a corner table and were obstructed from seeing the centre stage . We kindly asked to be moved and they did move us to a more suitable booth. The food was delicious , I ordered Sea Bass and I can say one of the best I have tasted so far. Entertainment was really good.

Don't get me wrong the food and drinks were very good, but no better than any other nice restaurant. This isn't a complaint. Everything was good. But just not worth the cost. Its a one off sort of place. Wouldn't return. Oh and also the young girls on the surrounding tables making tiktoks and selfies got boring. Could get just as good a meal for a third of the price anywhere else in Manchester

Expensive food which was very average and the place needs a good clean and some basic maintenance upkeep. Toilets are tired and scruffy and the entertainment isn’t worth the hype. So disappointed as the pictures look great, unfortunately we won’t be coming back.
